Mode opératoire

Sodium borohydride (0.17 g) is added portionwise to an ice-cold suspension of N-[4-bromo-2-(4-ethyl-benzoyl)-5-methoxy-phenyl]-acetamide (3.25 g) in ethanol (50 mL). The cooling bath is removed and the solution is stirred at ambient temperature for 2 h. Then, 1 M aqueous NaOH solution (8.5 mL) is added and the resulting solution is concentrated under reduced pressure. Water is added to the residue and the resulting mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts are washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The residue is taken up in trifluoroacetic acid (20 mL) and triethylsilane (4.3 mL) is added. The solution is stirred at ambient temperature overnight and then poured on crushed ice. The resultant mixture is extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts are washed with brine, dried (sodium sulphate) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is treated with methanol and the precipitate formed is separated. The precipitate is then washed with diisopropylether and dried to give the desired product.
